Yet there are still 3 teams that are hotter than them, and none hotter than the Dodgers.

With the addition of Jake Peavey, the Red Sox now have too many starting pitchers. Who gets dropped from the rotation? Dempster, Doubront or Workman?
And when (if) Buchholz comes back, someone else will have to move to the bullpen
No question the Dodgers (18-5 in July) have been very hot, but no team has been hotter than the Rays. The Rays have the best July record (21-4) in 72 years. And the Rays play in a FAR superior division.
A-Rod is appealing his suspension deal. This means once he comes off the DL, he must be placed back on the active roster until his appeal is heard.

The Red Sox have 37 games remaining against teams with winning records, versus only 17 games remaining against teams with losing records.
If you look at the immediate past, last 10 games is what I usually look at ...
The Tigers and the Dodgers are the two top teams, both at 9-1.
The Dodgers are 10-1 since the AS break.
The Tigers are 9-3 since the AS break.
I have to applaud A-roid for his decision to appeal. Having the league say that if he doesn't take the deal offered and if he loses, he's banned for life, is like the tactic of overcharging that prosecutors do to coerce innocent people into pleading out. Some woman recently got sentenced to 10 to 20 years/ 10 mandatory statutory minimum when she discharged a firearm during a domestic dispute, where the prosecutor offered to let her plead to something that would have been three years max with the possibility of some or all of that time suspended at sentencing but she refused, believing her act, under duress, was not criminal in nature.
I think the league will be forced to back off its position on a lifetime ban regardless of the finding of the arbitrator.
I was in Federal Court for a minor traffic offense last year, that unfortunately, was committed on the roadway that goes through the Pentagon parking lot. The cop actually wrote me up for two offenses, one that I did and one that I didn't do, just so they could trade away the one I didn't do to avoid the cost of a trial. I had been similarly, unfairly charged in Massachusetts 30 years ago. The cops there load up the tickets with defective equipment citations and then the nice guy prosecutor agrees to drop the equipment violations. The dumb cop thought it would be safe to put down that I had a noisy muffler because the vehicle was an old bomb, but surprise, surprise, I had had the entire exhaust professionally replaced a week earlier, so I would love to have made the officer look like a fool in court, but even if I did, they would have just maxed the penalty on the other citations.

When you have a team (Rays) that has the best July record in 72 years and today is the last day of the month, that tells me they are the hottest team.

A-rod and MLB are now negotiating the punishment.

Nahh, the AL East (but you knew that's what I was referring to). If you want to compare the Brewers and Cubbies to the Yankees and Blue Jays then I have nothing left to say on the subject.
Pirates win again, improving on the best record in all of baseball. Who would have predicted the Pirates would have the best record in their division, let alone in MLB, in August, let alone any time of the season?
And they are doing it without any superstars, major power threats, or very dominate aces. They are doing it collectively as a team with the best team ERA and scoring just enough to win.
They are exciting to watch and what one would consider a true "team".

The AL has more teams with better records, but I would consider the top three teams in the NL central better than any team in the AL East.

I don't agree with that, but it's possible you may be right. However, there is no "breather" in an intradivision series in the AL East.....I don't think you can say that about any other division in baseball.
FWIW, I think the Rays are the best team in all of baseball.
